I’m not sure what’s more embarrassing:
A dufus president with below average intelligence who, in grand paranoid fashion; started wars like they were cheap, effective and comforting.
An intellectual president who believed that being ethically compromised is more important than standing up to paranoid secretive spy’s who think that a mountain of personal information will save us.
It doesn’t matter what else they did, these are the trump cards and they played them. Laid, played. We used to say during all night euchre & hearts sessions in the dorm room. Once it’s out you can’t take it back. The earliernincan teach my daughter this the better it will be for her. Yeah, American politics will destroy American society. Our political system bubbles up dumb presidents who cost us a huge amount of money with little to no return on investment. And, it bubbles up smart presidents who compromise hope and ethical behavior for status quo while raping our self-evident right to privacy with promises of safety. I voted for both those fools at different times and understating in my life. I would vote for myself over either of them if I had it to do over again. I would not walk the frat boy path to leads to financial gain for a few with partnerships with a side of warn in third world countries. They have a huge cost both in both money and much more important, human resources that would better serve our country feeding, educating and laying community foundations for our neighbors here at home. I would not walk the self righteous path that sells hope and the American Dream while enabling paranoid with with silence and band aids after the fact as technocrats steal the last ounce of humanity from a digital river that is and should stay as wild as the mountain rivers that seasonally pour down the mountainside. Idk maybe it’s just to much rum tonight. Probably is but I think that American politics will destroy us all no matter which part of the spectrum our experiences have led is to settle on. War without end will always cost more than us invested ( but it will make a few folks rich ) and it will continue to fail to keep us truly safe. There is no such thing. Spy’s without short leashes will always overstep their bounds for personal gain. And society will be called on to pick up the tab when the fallout needed to be contained. It is the ethical and moral duty of any politician to denounce and inform the electorate any practice that costs society. Everyone needs to know what costs they are paying so they can vote effectively based non individual principles. It doesn’t matter what level the politician is on. It doesn’t matter which party the politician represents. It everyone does not know who they truly are they cannot accurately project their morals, ethics and conscious in their votes. And that’s a crime. I know this is overly idealistic, I can’t help it, I’m a libra and everything should balance, mainly because I believe in the amplified power of holism. When self evident rights are overlooked in the name of party, then society as a whole loses and our collective power is reduced. No one person, no one party has all the best or right or efficient ideas and if the system unplaced strangles the process that identifies and refines solutions to our problems we all lose. If the past decade and a half have taught me anything it’s that politics will destroy us. And the cycle will repeat with a slight variation in tempo and rhythm. It’s disheartening to know, without a doubt they I am smarter on all levels (emotional, ethical, intellectual) but just not very good or very motivated when it comes to selling snake oil. Definitely more rum than I planned on drinking while watching ‘Revolution’ tonight. I still can’t stop thinking about the Angular service that can intelligently clean up my UI at any given moment during my apps life cycle. It’s weird I find myself thinking about implementing something like the iOS life cycle for views and view controllers in angular to make my web application do what it needs to do automatically at dependable and regular intervals. Maybe I should just spend some more time with my memory game and the cool new things iOS7 is shipping with.
